Access Mentorship Program
A few hours a month could change your life and your level of success in university studies and beyond.
The Access Mentorship Program
This program supports graduates from the Academic Bridging Program as they transition into degree studies and provides a supportive community of peers.
The program will help you:
-
Remain engaged and committed to your development and education;
-
Build your confidence and skills in academic, social, and personal life;
-
Find a safe space for guidance during your first credits in your degree studies
Program details:
Following an introductory welcome and training session in September, mentors and mentees will engage in bi-weekly meetings throughout the Fall and Winter terms. In addition, a series of workshops and social events will be offered to foster further growth, collaboration, and community engagement.
